So, its friendly with LE mods? I've heard that you can port at least 90% of the LE mods to SE.

I would say it's even higher than 90%. I'm running SSE with about 275 mods and easily half of them I converted from Oldrim, and most of the rest of them are also ports but someone else did them. I haven't used it yet, because I got familiar with other tools before it was released, but I've heard that Cathedral Assets Optimizer makes it child's play to convert LE mods to SSE.

Quick question, I'm a bit confused by the multiple different versions of Skyrim floating around out there. If I'm buying solely with the intention of heavily modifying it, what would be the best version to get hold of?

Cheers!

Depends on what you want.

If you just want to make it as graphically fancy as you can, go for Special Edition (the new one). If you want to have as much choice in mods as you can, go for Legendary Edition (the old one).

Most mods here are made for LE and only some of those have conversions available for SE. So there's much more choice in mods if you get LE.

Not even in any universe.

LE has better PP and injection and that is cold hard facts. Any hi res mesh found in SSE is there because of choice and works just fine in LE, period.

Thanks guys, I thought LE was probably the better choice. I know when I looked years ago there was quite a bit of talk about how many mods weren't being ported. Thanks for the info.

Another one, eh? The moderators must be tired of merging these threads already.

Rather than worry about anyone else's judgement about aesthetics, it could help you to make your decision by poring over the screenshots and broadcasts from the various versions of Skyrim available for PC on Steam and elsewhere. Be sure to take a look over the most popular of the day/week,month/year/all time. Which ever one pleases your eyes the most can be your choice.

I heard that SE isn't much more stable than LE. Best wait until Creation Club dies out.

I think the real reason to use SSE is that cell load times are much much faster if you are playing on a SSD drive.

Ā 

LE handles loading in a single thread. SSE uses multiple threads. Result is 1-2 second cell door load times.

So, because you cannot set up and configure LE correctly the OP should use SE?

I have about 350 mods on LE and I very rarely get a CTD.

I didn't say anything about SE as I have never used it. What I did was comment on the nonsense you posted.

I played LE on Win7 64-bit and an old HDD and now I play it on Win10 64-bit with a new HDD. The game was and is stable because it is set up and configured properly.

If SE is so stable then why is the SE tech support thread so active?

There are more people playing SE at this point so its tech support threads are going to be more active. It is as simple as that.

Logically, it aint necessarily so. And where do you get your numbers from?

Steam. You can always check player count for a game from the Community tabs.

Leaving aside the reliability of anything Steam, my other point is still valid.

Not really. I could see there being a substantial number of offline players for Special Edition for anyone trying to avoid updates but there isn't much need of doing the same with Legendary Edition.Ā 

Now, if you were to being up the fact that BGS did patch a few minor things here and there during Creation Club updates (most notably removing certain enemy spawns near or in city limitsĀ and a few water records, breaking the USSEP whenever they do so, decreasing compatibility with certain mods which were made Unofficial Patch compliant, then that would be a valid point.

You're ignoring both adult modding and the fact LE sold five times the number that SSE did, and that includes "free installs". Steamcharts and other apps can only scrape accounts set to public and viewable. You'll find outside of some evangelists the primary use of adult content is on LE and not covered under steam chart usage, and the amount of volume on this site actually reflects that as well.

1. Most people quit playing Skyrim as a whole regardless of which ever version one is dealing with.

2. Sales are a linear thing so it is not as if people who purchased Skyrim in other formats will suddenly un-buy it somehow. I purchased it on console and Legendary Edition for PC, getting Special Edition for free then leaving it unused for a few years. Most people are reluctant to upgrade anything until they absolutely have to, something else which Steam hardware surveys can attest to.

3. Most mods for Legendary Edition work just fine on Special Edition so there is no need for any 'official' conversions, be they meshes or textures or scripted mods.

4. I'd most likely find nothing of the sort since the possibility also exists that the absent players simply don't exist at all.

At the end of the day, SkyrimĀ is just a product which is greatly outdated and anyone who is not using some form of third party modifications has likely moved on to something more current.

The format is inconsequential in the end so I can see no justification to point someone who does not have either version yet in the direction of the deprecated version of the outdated software.
